I'm in search of some short story collections! Preferably fiction. Not looking for a specific genre, but prefer adult lit (I'm not looking for YA).
I just read What We Talk About When We Talk About Love by Raymond Carver and I'm looking for similar types of books

The Stories of John Cheever
I love short stories. These are some of the favorites that come immediately to mind.
Self Help by Lorrie Moore
For the Relief of Unbearable Urges by Nathan Englander
Table for Two by Amor Towles
The Interpreter of Maladies by Jhumpa Lahiri
Yiyun Li is currently my favorite.
Shirley Hazzard, Lucia Berlin, Lydia Davis, Annie Proulx, Aleksandar Hemon, Juno Diaz, Bryan Washington, Elif Batuman, Grace Paley, Tom McGuane, Denis Johnson, Anthony Veasna So…
The best return on investment is to get an issue of Paris Review or an intro subscription to The New Yorker.
Wyoming Stories by Annie Proulx
Machine Learning by Hugh Howie.
